How do they do it properly? Isn't it the way you install it or does it really have something to do with the can itself? Should I get another catch can or can the one AVO one pictured above be...

Well, the risk, as I understand it, is introducing pressures where they shouldn't go, but I really don't get it since I haven't seen one installed firsthand.

Here's a pic of my catch can I found on the internet. All hoses are large diameter (nearly the size of a garden hose). Thoughts?

Which system is more important to use a catch can on? I've always read it's bad to use one can for both.

I did check the return hose (as well as I could) when I had this same issue last year and it showed zero evidence of oil leaking, but it could be that the oil just burns off of it I guess. Thanks...

I have a catch can but never had the balls to install it.

So, pull the IC and turbo heat shield to get to the oil feed lines and check that they're tight/not leaking?

I really don't think there's excess oil in the TB, IC or inlet hose. I didn't actually look inside the inlet hose, but it's upstream from the rest so I think I'd see it if it existed.

My theory...

Okay, but the issue is very intermittent and oil smoke appears from both sources simultaneously (I'm not seeing one issue without the other), so I can't imagine there's more than one issue here. How...

After removing the IC and looking under it and the turbo, I did find some oil but I'm not sure where it's coming from. Just like when I had this issue last year, I see evidence of oil on the CV boot...

Yeah, I'd rather just have a professional handle it for peace of mind, plus I'm just not as motivated to do mods myself any more. I'm cool with just handling maintenance on my own. :)

No evidence of oil when I pulled the heatshield this morning. The car ran great and didn't smoke out the hood or tailpipe at autocross all day. It even got faster in the afternoon. :)

I think the only solution is better drill bits, a steady hand, and the type of extractor I described in my edit above. Sucks.

Those extractors that are just drill bits with a biting tip always break. I don't think they ever work except when the broken bolt offers zero resistance. Make sure you use PB Blaster on it...

You could always take the broken one to that fastner shop in town. (R&E?) They have a large variety of grade 8 and stronger bolts. I'm sure they'd have just the right one.
